The worldโs seeing more hurricanes, floods, and wildfires, and thatโs pushing up demand for emergency food.

For example, in regions like North America and Asia-Pacific, where extreme weather events are common, sales of emergency food kits have surged by 15% in retail chains. Companies like Nestlรฉ are ramping up production of shelf-stable meals to meet this need. Government programs, like the U.S. FEMA stockpile initiatives, are also boosting bulk purchases of non-perishable foods, ensuring communities are prepared for crises, which keeps the industry growing strong.
